Police Officer: Well, I informed him that he was exceeding the speed limit and, uh, that's when he told me that he was racing home because his friend was about to commit suicide.
Judge: And then what happened?
Police Officer: Well, then he became very loud and hysterical. He was flailing his arms about as he told the story. And then he threw himself on the ground, and he grabbed me around the legs, and then he begged me to let him go. And when I refused, that's when he began to scream, "My friend's going to die. My friend's going to die."
